If you are looking for a free tool to monitor Google analytics from your desktop, a tool called Polaris can come to good use.

Polaris is a Adobe Air application that allows you to monitor your Google Analytics account from your desktop. Polaris is a cross-platform desktop widget for Google Analytics. With 8 standard reports it’s the easiest way keep your data always instantly available. The rich interface and swift navigation make it a pleasure to use.

Polaris is free for single profile/single website usage, if you have more than one profiles or websites, you will need to shell out $15 per year.

Great. It is about time someone bring a desktop tool to keep my Google Analytics track up to date. Although the free version only offers you with single account, but hey it is still great. But in the next addition I would like to see screen size customization and more Google Analytics features are integrated within.
